Guardians Lose to Twins, 3-1
The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of Minnesota fans at Target Field.

Nick Wise pitched well enough to win, but it was not to be. The Cleveland Guardians, despite Wise's fine outing, dropped a 3-1 decision to the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. The Twins, at 52-56, sit in 4th place in the American League Central Division.

Kurt Villarreal had a big solo home run for the Twins in the bottom of the third inning. With Minnesota leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a sinker from Nick Wise, who led the AL in innings pitched with 230.2 in 2106, and punished it. The result was his 9th home run of the season, which put the Twins on top, 2-0.

"I like what I saw today," said Minnesota manager Chris Greuling, "and I can't wait to get back out there and do it again."
